Glitch Festival 2026: four days of techno at Gianpula Fields, Malta — 12 to 15 August
The Glitch Festival returns for a four-day edition from 12 to 15 August 2026 at Gianpula Fields, an outdoor venue in the Maltese countryside. The official site banners the 2026 edition as « almost sold out, very few day tickets left » — a position the festival has held in early summer for several years thanks to its tight focus on European techno and underground house programming on a single Mediterranean island weekend.
The 2026 line-up keeps the European techno A-list under the Maltese sun: AMELIE LENS, BEN KLOCK, Brutalismus 3000, Mall Grab, ANETHA, FUNK TRIBU, CHRIS STUSSY and DJ HEARTSTRING headline the multiple open-air stages.
Gianpula Fields, Malta — 12 to 15 August 2026. Day and four-day passes (limited) available on glitchfestival.com.
